Emergency Operations Plan Review & Compliance Update
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department's Emergency Operations Plan is overdue for review, creating measurable compliance risk and jeopardizing eligibility for emergency management grant funding. A fragmented mass notification environment compounds operational gaps, increasing risk to coordinated public response during critical incidents.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing and a leadership transition create an immediate window to prioritize and fund EOP remediation before grant eligibility is further jeopardized. Acting now aligns with the current fiscal cycle, supports compliance, and strengthens the community's emergency preparedness posture.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department operates a fragmented emergency notification stack across multiple platforms, creating transition risks, redundant costs, and gaps in reliable public alerting. An overdue EOP review and a recent system change elevate compliance and operational risk, making consolidation an explicitly stated strategic priority.
The opportunity
An upcoming budget hearing and leadership transition create a near-term window to advance consolidation before the next fiscal cycle is set. Addressing fragmentation now reduces operational risk, supports EOP compliance, and positions the department to protect grant eligibility tied to preparedness standards.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Training Compliance & Endpoint Management Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The department faces an imminent cybersecurity awareness training deadline and has no credential or password management solution in place, creating measurable compliance and security exposure. The current endpoint management platform presents capability gaps, increasing operational risk across department devices and staff access points.
The opportunity
An established annual IT and software budget, combined with the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program as a potential funding pathway for qualifying cybersecurity initiatives, supports action within the current fiscal cycle. Addressing training compliance and endpoint management now reduces audit risk and strengthens the department's security posture ahead of the upcoming budget hearing.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department faces an active WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline with no remediation plan in place, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable public access. Without a structured path forward, the agency risks ADA-related liability and continued exclusion of residents with disabilities from essential digital services.
The opportunity
The active compliance deadline creates immediate urgency, and the existing website platform provides a practical starting point for staged remediation alongside broader portal improvements. This project aligns with the upcoming FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, offering a timely window to fund and prioritize accessibility improvements.

Discuss this project →First Responder Radio & Regional Emergency Coordination Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Aging radio communications infrastructure and fragmented regional coordination create interoperability gaps that put first responders and the public at risk during emergencies. An overdue Emergency Operations Plan review compounds compliance exposure and threatens eligibility for preparedness-related grant funding.
The opportunity
The upcoming FY 2026–2027 budget hearing represents an immediate funding window to advance these priorities before the cycle closes. Acting now reduces compliance risk, strengthens regional response readiness, and positions the department to capture available state and federal preparedness funding.

Discuss this project →Emergency Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's 11-vehicle emergency response fleet currently lacks documented safety technology, including telematics and dash cameras, creating visibility and accountability gaps. Planned fleet vehicle acquisitions present a timely opportunity to integrate safety technology before new assets are deployed.
The opportunity
Upcoming fleet purchases and the FY 2026–2027 budget hearing create a natural and immediate window to embed telematics into procurement planning. Cooperative purchasing agreements available to the department can streamline acquisition and reduce administrative burden on public staff.
